What do you get when you cross an alligator and a giraffe? We're not sure either, but we bet it resembles the Corona Clipper 14-foot Professional Compound Action tree pruner. With a reach of up to 14 feet and a heat-treated, high-carbon cutlery steel blade, this mighty tool will meet the needs of even the most hardcore arborists. The cutting power is provided by this pruner's heavy-duty, chain-drive, compound-action pulley system, which effectively triples your cutting power. The angled zinc-alloy pruning head allows you to hook and cut branches up to 1-1/4 inches in diameter more easily. Operated by Corona Clipper's exclusive PowerGlide rope-pull system, the shearing action cuts cleanly and resists binding. Need to cut a branch that's a bit thicker? You'll be yelling "Timber" in no time thanks to the curved 13-inch razor-tooth saw blade. With teeth sharpened on three sides, this saw blade cuts on both the up and the down stroke, and enables you to cut twice as quickly as conventional blades. The lightweight and sturdy fiberglass pole telescopes from 7 to 14 feet, allowing for maximum reach, includes an internal stop that keeps the poles from separating, and ends with a comfortable 24-inch foam grip.
